Nest building

The first task for Ospreys returning to their nest site is to repair and improve the nest. In addition to making a better nest the activity reestablishes the bond between the pair.

Before our volunteers installed the camera the old nest and platform were replaced with a new platform better able to support the camera. As with all of the other Osprey platforms we've replaced a small amount of grass and sticks were added as starter material.
